As in "appropriate" would be whether he gets a yellow or a red depending on his actions. It really is cut & dry unfortunately.

@Adge will know better than me about further down the pyramid, but certainly at PL level they are assessed after every game & also have an independent panel assessing VAR decisions.

He will. The VAR will likely be invited to give his thoughts too as it really should have been a red card. He will argue he only thought it worthy of a yellow but that's incorrect. https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39730927/the-var-review-semedo-red-card-west-ham-disallowed-goals?_nocache

If he hadn't have booked him then the ref would be getting a bollocking from his assessor. We can moan about the laws around it by all means but it's certainly not the ref's fault.

I understand this argument but they wouldn't throw out a points deduction just willy nilly for it. Once the culprit is identified you'd look at his history, is he a regular match goer etc etc.

Why do you think they'll get away with it?

And so did ours after Wright's goal. Bit different to running across the entire width of the pitch for a knee slide.

It's a difficult mindset shift for fans but ultimately, we want players prepared to take risks & play in tight spaces & difficult areas which is why I backed him since day 1. Yes, there were mistakes, still are on occasion (as with everyone) but he is an exceptional player at this level.

He was fairly lenient, half the bench ran on to the pitch without punishment. Palmer running the full width of it to knee slide in front of the fans could never be anything other than a booking & he knew it himself hence the social media posts afterwards.

Klopp in being a prick (again) shocker.

Can't decide if United are awfully coached or they just have too many mavericks who want to do their own thing off the ball. Probably ultimately the same though if they're not doing as instructed.

The Mavididi wonder goal was their only shot on target. They look tidy but have very little goal threat & leave themselves so open at the back. The freak own goal made it seem much closer than it really was.

7 in the PL & only 1 this year. He started well at West Ham but has tailed off massively. They've moved him to the 10 & even coming in off the left at times & he's made very little impact. Moyes hooked him at half-time in their last game. He is a wonderful set piece taker but his all around...

Quite something to gain an unfair advantage by cheating the financial rules, having the highest wage bill outside the 'Big 6' & still getting relegated 🤣

Yeah. Richardson had already agreed a deal with Blackburn behind Dublin's back then got his nose out of joint when Dion didn't want to go.

Fair point although look how we was treated by us 😔 Some 26 years ago though & agents will always advise against players doing similar now.

There's not a single player in the world that would sign that deal, makes zero sense.

He owes us nothing. We gave him a contract & he's honoured it. His performances have gone way above & beyond what could be expected of him during his time here too. It's pretty much common knowledge that we'd agreed to sell him to Burnley before his injury but not once was he pushing for the...
